What is FrameThief FOR MAC?

FrameThief

FrameThief is your go-to solution for animators using a Macintosh. It packs a bunch of tools that make creating high-quality animations super easy, flexible, and quick!

What Can FrameThief Do?

At its core, FrameThief works like a video frame grabber. But it takes this a step further by offering features specifically designed for animation. All you really need to get started is a video camera and a PowerPC Macintosh.

Compatibility with Video Devices

The cool thing about FrameThief’s video frame grabber is that it works with almost all video capture devices out there for Mac. From webcams to Digital Video (DV), you can snag high-quality still images that you might not find in other programs.

Add More Features with Plug-Ins

FrameThief has this neat plug-in style setup which lets developers create plug-ins for even more hardware options, like Digital Still Cameras. If you've ever found the process of animating with these cameras to be tedious, FrameThief makes it simple!

User-Friendly Design

This software was designed for animation from the ground up, so it's easy to use. Unlike other apps that mix in video editing features, FrameThief keeps things focused on animation.

Create Image Files with Ease

With FrameThief, you can produce sequential image files that you can edit in Photoshop or turn into QuickTime movies using its export features or another program called FrameSplicer.

Simplifying Animation Steps

The main goal of FrameThief is to simplify the animation process. While most software requires multiple steps to capture frames, FrameThief can do this in one step or even automate it!

Cool Tools for Complex Scenes

Features like lightbox, rotoscoping, and sketch tools help make shooting even the trickiest scenes much easier.

An Interface That Works For Everyone

The interface of FrameThief strikes a balance between simplicity and power. It allows everyone from beginners to pros to focus on creating their animations instead of fussing over complicated tools.
